Pseudodifferential calculus on a singular foliation

摘要

In a previous paper ([1]), we associated a holonomy groupoid and a C*-algebra to any singular foliation (M, F). Using these, we construct the associated pseudodifferential calculus. This calculus gives meaning to a Laplace operator of any singular foliation F on a compact manifold M, and we show that it can be naturally understood as a positive, unbounded, self-adjoint operator on L2(M).
